Create lead

Creates a new lead in salesforce with the specified information.

Why this helps

Prospect documents land in Drive via email or shared links. You file them away but don't create a lead in Salesforce. Leads get forgotten, and opportunities disappear.

  • Every prospect document becomes a tracked lead
  • No manual data entry or field mapping
  • Reduce dropped opportunities
  • Sales team sees all incoming prospects

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and Salesforce to Notis.
  • 2Tell Notis: 'When a new file is created in my prospects folder, create a lead in Salesforce.'
  • 3Notis will extract name, email, and company details from the file when it can.
  • 4Add a test prospect file and verify the lead appears in Salesforce.

Questions about this workflow

How does Notis know what to pull from the document?

Notis uses AI to find contact info and company details. You can refine this by telling it which fields to prioritize.

What if a file doesn't have full contact info?

Notis creates a lead with what it finds and marks incomplete fields so you can fill them in.

Can I filter files by name or folder?

Yes. Tell Notis to only create leads for files in specific folders or with certain keywords.

File Shared (Permissions Added)

Triggers when new sharing permissions are granted to a file or folder. Uses Drive's `changes.list` endpoint with inline `permissions` in the `fields` mask so each change carries the file's current permission set provider-atomically. We diff that against `seen_permission_keys` to identify newly added grants. Drive page tokens are the primary cursor; if Drive rejects a stored token, the trigger raises `PollingTriggerError` without clearing state rather than silently re-baselining and dropping events. Limitation: truly ephemeral permissions (added and revoked between two polls without any other file modification in between) are not detected. Drive Activity API would catch those but requires an additional OAuth scope and a different payload contract.

TriggerPolling

Add product to opportunity

Adds a product (line item) to an opportunity. the product must exist in a pricebook entry that's associated with the opportunity's pricebook.

ActionInstant

File Updated

Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.

New File Matching Query

Triggers when a new Google Drive file matches a provided query. This is the legacy query-centric trigger: it preserves Drive API query config such as ``corpora`` / ``driveId`` aliases and emits the historical ``file_matching_query`` event type. ``FileCreatedTrigger`` covers the broader "new file" case and emits ``file_created``.

TriggerPolling
